This month the Ultimate Chocolate Shoppe chose the Making Memories Foundation as our charty of the month! This foundation grants wishes to Stage 4 terminal breast cancer patients. The foundation is a wonderful organization that raises funds for its wish granting through a variety of ways but the biggest one is from the sale of donated wedding dresses.
The foundation goes to major cities nationwide holding bonaza sales of incredible wedding dresses and formal wear. Some of their selection is new and some is used. But how worn can any of the dresses be? I know that my wedding dresses,yes that is plural, were worn for probably less than 12 hours!
It is quite an event and well worth the trip! A year ago, I donated a dozen dresses that I collected from friends and family and attended their event in Baltimore area. The selection was breathtaking and the pricing incredible! One dress that I had seen at a designer shop selling for several thousand dollars was $499. If you are trying to save a little money, this might be worth the effort.
With breast cancer effecting 1 in approximately 8 women, we thought that we might continue to assist the efforts of this great foundation! So this month, we will make a contribution from our proceeds to the Making Memories Foundation. Thank you for helping us help them!
